Hi Kaz,

I think you are referring to a different problem that occurs with more recent unreleased versions of the V4 code after pvAccess was split into 3 libraries.

Jorn's problem was coming from the fact that he defined PVACCESS, etc. in a CONFIG file rather than in a RELEASE file.  These type of definitions must be done in a RELEASE file in order to have the EPICS build system know to search those modules for include files and libraries.

Hi,



This should be fixed in EPICSV4 or subsequent, and was discussed in recent EPICS core developer meeting in ITHER. This is related to splitting pvAccess into 3 libraries.

In the meantime, a fix that worked for me is to include all 3 libraries on line 24 of:



areaDetector/ADCore /ADApp/commonDriverMakefile



{Replace}

  PROD_LIBS += pvAccess



{With this}

PROD_LIBS += pvAccessIOC pvAccessCA pvAccess

-----

This will allow proper build of all IOC’s build with areaDetector that include EPICSV4.

I think those definitions need to be in a RELEASE file for the build system to add them to the directories to be searched.  My understanding is that RELEASE files are read both by make and by perl, while CONFIG files are read only by make.

Thanks Mark,



that solved the problem. I'm only puzzled why I can not define those variables in CONFIG_SITE.local. Doing so results in the exact same problem.
